The sale will reportedly consist of two parts: a primary offering, where the money raised will go to the company, and a secondary portion in which current shareholders will sell part of their stakes. US private-equity firm Warburg Pincus will reportedly offload part of its 31% holding in Camil.
Over the last decade, Camil Alimentos has sought to expand internationally, making acquisitions in Uruguay and Chile.
The company, which markets products include rice, beans and biscuits, has 12 production plants in Brazil, 9 in Uruguay and 4 in Chile, according to its website.
